Full Description

C22 (NF667029) Arc-shaped setting of ten stones, three of which are upright, the rest lying flat. The tallest stone is 0.9 m high, and the chord of the arc is about 8 m. Despite its 'megalithic' appearance, this setting may be of relatively recent date.

Branigan and Foster 2000, 35.
